Was he the greatest underground comic book artist of all time?
>>7938697even for a dorky guy like crumb he still managed to lose his virginity to a cute jewish girl when he turned 19 i think. Thats better than most guys in the modern day who are 30 and still virgins
>>7938695FUUUUCK you are lucky. I really admire his writing style.
>>7938864Difference between being gross but likable and just being a disgusting sack of shit
funny how nobody cares about maxon. Anyways, here is the crumb brothers. Imagine if charles crumb didn't become a recluse and tried to make it big in comics like his brother robert, wouldn't that be great
>>7939425>funny how nobody cares about maxon.I just saw a recent video of Maxon from January of this year on Internet Archive, kind of interesting.https://archive.org/details/maxon-crumb
Why is everything else so inferior to it?
>>7939731Because they can afford to pay good developers free programs don't stand much chance if you can't afford to put all your time into developing that program.
Leonardo beats it as a pure drawing program, for me at least. infinite canvas and far more intuitive in terms of UI, hotkeys etc photoshop is a photo editor that also happens to be useable as a drawing program, but it's not ideal first and foremost for drawing without a fair amount of tweaking. it crashes and bugs out on me all the fucking time too
I tried Krita, CSP and PS and stuck with PS solely because it had the best looking pencil
Why did it win artist anons can you enlighten me
>>7938874The way the chest is lit while the face stays in shadow keeps drawing my eye to the man's nipple. I don’t think that was the painter’s intention.>>7938888"It looks just like a photo" is a high praise for many.
>>7938292What women say and how they act are two different things. Most women think they have no height preference whatsoever but they only date 6'3" guys.
>>7938378>Records were broken again. The number of entries hit an all-time high. Among the finalists, there were eight Indigenous artists and ten Indigenous sitters – and, for the first time, Indigenous artists won the Packing Room Prize (awarded to Meyne Wyatt) and the Archibald Prize (awarded to Vincent Namatjira)just patting each other on the back how liberal they are lol. this shit is permabeg tier
>>7938064lets be real in here: if i was the jury in that competition, I too would have picked some random abbos grandma whose pose and gesture looks like she was standing on her porch and have her picture taken by her mixed abbo granddaughter without a slightest idea that the grand daughter will turn her picture into some art medium as an entry to art competition solely to piss people off and cause ruckus on the internet
>>7939269>solely to piss people off and cause ruckus on the internetthis is getting old though. It's almost expected that ugly/retarded/leftist themes win every competition that is based on non-objective judging. Of course a badly drawn abbo woman would win an australian art prize. Call me when a portrait of Hitler wins
>just draw from life bro
>>7939551how do you know he hasn't found it in the wild?
>>7939533I just like the sketch. I think I've got the right to see it drawn again, and again.
>>7939105Very nice
>>7939689But i already drew the picture...
>>7939040
>Have been drawing for nearly a decade digitally >No AI used ever>Decide to put my drawings through an AI detection site just for the shits and giggles>AI Probability: 90%It's so over
>>7933082I'm afraid you're a robot, anon
>>7933082Why did you lie anon?
>>7933082AI detection tools are ridiculously unreliable, might as well flip a coin.I still think you are lying and probably used AI. Fuck you.
>>7933082Your shit was probably blurry.

It's better to post your art in existing threads, instead of making a new one. Keep that in mind for next time. You could put this one in /salt/.Now, just to clarify, this could be blind leading the blind, since I'm not the best at anatomy myself lol, but here's sume stuff I noticed.1. The ribcage, boobs and collarbones don't seem alligned well. Actually, the collarbones and boobs match, it's just the lines at the bottom indicating ribs are in a bit of an odd position.2. The hand on the pillow looks a bit silly, like it's inflated or something. Also, the fingers are a bit too short.3. The belt doesn't really have volume, it shares its outer line with the rest of her body. You could make it look more 3d, either by showing how it lays on the skin and making it stick out a bit more, or by making it dig into the skin a bit (which could help with the sexy effect you're going for).4. I don't know if this was your intention, but she looks really, really long. Especially in the legs. If that's what you're going on, it's fine, but if not, look up some proportion guides.5. The bottom of the image is taken up by whatver red surface she's laying on. I think you could crop that, so she would be more in the middle. Not to mention, it's a similar shade to her hair and eyes, making them stand out less.
>pubic hairYou are already better than most nsfw artist. Keep it up.

>>7926733so cool

Why was Ruan Jia's old artstyle so much better?
>>7928209>by the time wei feng did this: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/EZkd4ruan jia was doing this: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/3qPEvthis batch of images is funny, they are using a bunch of layers and not caring to have light make an impact on any object, it all looks so painfully flat, whats the point of chasing this lrvel if detail when you are forgetting the single most important thing?i know that it might look like i am just being a hater, i dont think i will ever make a piece that detailed, but you cant tell me with a straight face that i am 100% wrong.
>>7930378He's right. If you can recognise your own biases here, you can go further much more quickly. You're in that initial stage where you're starting to grasp or grapple with fundamentals. You're climbing that first hill while not experienced enough to know the mountains that lie beyond it. If you can let go of the need to be the "advanced" artist who's reached the summit and recognise that you're only just at the start of the climb you can see with objective eyes and realistically move towards self mastery without the hubris of ego clouding your perception.You instinctively calling that guy a crab and so dismissing his criticism is the exact attitude that will keep you stuck in delusionland.Humble yourself. The journey has only just begun and that's ok. It simply is what it is.>ok crab PYWOk... it's not my problem. But at least we tried to steer you towards the summit.
>>7933844>But at least we tried to steer you towards the summit.Sure thing, crab.>For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray.

Please give me some feedback! :Đ
>>7939515why herm hamd so big?
>>7939519idk :Đ
>>7939515Cute.I see no particular reason to give feedback unless I know what your goal is.Maybe just practice on hands is all I can give
>>7939524Thanks a lot! ^^ I think her hands are a bit rough too...:Đ
A lot of people envy Japanese animators because every other nation's cartoon industry is a smoldered pile of rubble by now. But what I personally envy is doujinshi culture. Every city has their own community of artists who run conventions where you can interact with local artists and sell your artwork. The best America has are small zine fests which are usually inhabited by snoody snoodsters and commie art appropriators Anyone else feel this way?
>>7934360>and that should be the case everywhere but it isnt for some reasonIt is in my country, the biggest comic convention event (like a smaller scale comic-con) sets up a massive tent exclusively for fanzines and indie shithttps://www.youtube.com/shorts/uCdwUOw0TKE
>>7939472>"Massive tent">Is like 10 artists in a non doujin ComiconYeah, no, that's pretty normal and nowhere near Comiket
>>7935726America is unfortunately anti-intellectual and kept that way; artists and other creatives dont get much respect here. Idk about Japan but parents here know you can make way more money doing just about anything else than art.In the case of Japan it seems to be a combination of an introverted culture that values craftsmanship and the more grim reality of being a natural resource poor economy that has to rely on IP products.
>>7934269You don't want to be an animator as a profession, especially if you're Japanese. Those kinds of shit is only appealing to school and college kids where they have a lot of time and little commitments
>>7934286it’s pretty different though i’m not sure why you’re pretending they’re at all equivalent furry conventions are a better match
Give me a road map to learn art.think of me as a complete beginner who never drew, who wants to draw like Loomis or Norman.
>>7931353any other ideas?
>>7931107unironically read the sticky.
>>7931107Stage 1:>draw lines for a week>draw shapes for a week>draw forms for two weeksStage 2:>do blind contours and gesture studies of household objects>draw with your non-dominant handStage 3:>use markers on glass to study forms of household objects>print out forms in varied perspectives to trace and copy>do still lifes of cups, fruits, plastic balls, bottles, furniture, shoes, models, vehicles, toys, etc.Comment too long.

>>7931107Draw things you enjoy during the processStudy Perspective, shapes, Line quality and ColorsIf you like drawing people be sure to draw from life or references.Then study compositionDo photo realism studies of subjects you like.Eventually your natural shortcuts will turn into a style.You can also take inspiration from others but be sure not to only ape one person, find multiple styles you like and try to synthesize the things you enjoy to create a blend unique to youComment too long.
